THEORETICAL STUDY ON THE REACTION MECHANISM OF CO2 FORMATION FROM ACYLOXY RADICALS

The decomposition mechanism of acyloxy radicals has been studied by the Density Functional Theory (DFT) using B3LYP functional in conjunction with the 6-311++G(d,p) and 6-311++G(3df,2p) basis sets. The potential energy profiles for reaction systems were generally established.
